“After more than two years in test mode, we are pleased to start planning our pilot program with ABS and have an opportunity to participate in a full scale nationwide broadband wireless coverage implementation, in which mg3 wireless will play a important part,” said William Yuan, CEO of MediaG3.

“Applying U.S. technology to the China market is our business focus. Through partnerships and in cooperation with both domestic and overseas companies, MediaG3 is playing a role in building a new generation of broadband wireless infrastructure, plus a comprehensive platform to power connection, communication and interaction for mobile and broadband users.”
